The Henry County Zoning Advisory Board voted at its May 28 regular meeting to recommend approval of a rezoning request from RA (residential-agricultural) to R-3 (single-family residential) for an 11.19-acre site south of Dailey Mill Road and east of Dailey Walk.
The proposed 15-lot subdivision is in line with the county’s future land use map, which designates the property for low-density residential development, according to county staff. After analyzing the surrounding properties, availability of sewer and street classification of Dailey Mill Road, staff recommended approval with several conditions. A representative of surrounding property owners spoke to the board in opposition to the request, saying that there have been numerous flooding issues and even some property damage on their sites, and that building on this property would cause more problems.
The motion to approve stipulated that each home be at least 2,200 square feet.
